#246. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/49/Snow_White_1937_poster.png
Dir: A bunch of dudes at Disney
Genre: Animation, Musical
Year: 1937

The first of a half-dozen Disney animated films on this lost (not counting Pixar) is also the first of their features. Going through the Disney animated filmography for this list is a pretty unrewarding task, as you find yourself having to cut true classics and weigh both influence with objective appeal. Fortunately, Snow White not only happens to be the film that sets the classic standards, but it's also one of the best of the "Golden Age" canon.

Even though it's nearly a century old, the hand-painted cels are still absolutely gorgeous and provide an aesthetic that is really unique to the era. The music ("Heigh-Ho" specifically) can hold its weight against any of the non-Renaissance Disney films, and it's rather remarkable that all of this was able to be done with virtually no precedent. Snow White is really damn good.

PS I'm not a Disney expert, so I am genuinely curious if this will be considered a good pick or not!
